It turns out that the Mazdaspeed6 has a serious issue....a turbo seals
problem. Too many cars are effected and I could not get any assurance
from the dealer that Mazda had fixed it. That, and a few other worries
nixed the Speed6 for us.

Too bad you didn't nix that Sedona. But you're learning!

So now....we still wanted a fast and fun AWD car that had some room/
comfort and good speed. We decided to up the budget and go for the
Subaru Legacy GT Spec. B. A bit faster than the Speed6, but looser
handling (I'll fix that with some suspension tweaks). Tested it today
and far better appointed of course and way quicker than the Audi A6
(which is also nice).

How does it stack up to the B9 from outer space? Is it safer?


Anyway...got the manual tranny and the cold air intake....should have
it on Friday. We spent more, but it's a nicer car with few peers near
it's price.

Friday is two days away. Still time to change the story a few times.


Meanwhile....told Suzanne I want the Lotus for next spring. She says
Go for it!

Great! Are you going to keep the Segway?


Oh....sailing tomorrow and Thursday. Cheers!


What, no mountain biking?
